The Young Boss (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 137
On a day when autumn was deepening further. Jeong Im rushed to the in-law’s house in a fluster after receiving Hwa Ran’s call.
“Sit over there.”
Though her future mother-in-law had arrived, A Hyeon didn’t even come out of her room. As Jeong Im awkwardly settled onto the sofa, Hwa Ran, sitting with legs crossed arrogantly, opened her mouth.
“I thought it was time we discussed the betrothal gifts, so I asked you to come.”
Betrothal gifts! Jeong Im’s ears perked up instantly.
One of the most painful things when Si Hyeon and Woo Jin’s engagement fell through had been precisely the betrothal gifts issue—after all, she’d already selected those luxury handbags but never got to receive them.
‘Si Hyeon was just an ordinary office worker, yet her handbag alone cost ten million won. Since A Hyeon is a wealthy family’s daughter, they’ll surely bring something far more expensive, right?’
Jeong Im’s heart lifted with rare excitement.
“Oh dear, betrothal gifts? Why worry yourself over something like that?”
Even as she said this, she deliberately waved her hand dismissively outwardly—thoroughly disciplined after being scolded so severely by Hwa Ran previously.
“If it truly troubles you, we’d be perfectly content with just some token items from you…”
“What nonsense are you spouting?”
Hwa Ran’s eyes shot upward sharply.
“We’ve already arranged everything—the wedding ceremony, the honeymoon, even the newlywed home. Why should we provide the betrothal gifts? You’re the ones who should bring them.”
“…What?”
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
